JSciRes CfPs: Special issue on Quantitative, Network-theoretic and Altmetric Analysis of Scholarly Big Data
Journal of Scientometric Research <br> <br>Special issue on Quantitative, Network-theoretic and Altmetric Analysis of <br>Scholarly Big Data <br> <br>*Call for Papers* <br>In the modern connected world full of digital information and scholarly <br>content, identifying the most relevant resources has become a challenge. A <br>researcher, irrespective of his/her discipline of knowledge, now has to <br>depend on online portals, digital libraries and electronic repositories for <br>finding scientific articles in an area and also reporting research results. <br>However, academic search is still provided largely by various search <br>engines, where they treat the task of scholarly article search as a web <br>search problem. In this process, the bibliometric information and <br>associated metadata of scholarly articles is often ignored completely. <br>This special issue aims to report research results and advances in the <br>area, viewed from different perspectives (such as Computer Science, <br>Informatics, Bibliometrics, Scientometrics and Science & Technology <br>Studies). There are clear applications of Scientometrics to Information <br>Retrieval and vice versa. Applying Scientometrics to Information Retrieval <br>process helps in improving the Information Retrieval results, particularly <br>in Scholarly articles domain, a theme now pursued under the title of <br>Bibliometric Enhanced Information retrieval. Similarly, ideas from Text <br>Analytics and Language Processing can help in developing newer models of <br>Scientometric evaluations and characterizations. Altmetrics, the emerging <br>alternative metrics, are another important area of research having impact <br>on the way scholarly data is processed. Network-theoretic approaches <br>contribute to understanding of the area as well. <br>Submissions to the special issue are open to researchers from any part of <br>the world. The special issue will mainly draw extended papers from the <br>Indo-German Workshop on Information Retrieval, Informetrics and <br>Scientometrics to be held during 11-13 June 2019 at Cologne, Germany. <br>However, special issue is also open to submissions on the topics covered in <br>the workshop from other authors as well. Authors are solicited to submit <br>articles reporting research results, conceptual advances and experimental <br>studies, describing significant advances in Information Retrieval, <br>Informetrics and Scientometrics. Papers that describe concepts and ideas on <br>the broad intersection of Information Retrieval, Scientometrics, Applied <br>Informetrics and Altmetrics are welcome. The journal allows different kinds <br>of submissions ranging from Research Articles & Perspective Papers to <br>Commentary and Scientific Correspondence. Please see <br>https://www.jscires.org/contributors.asp for more details. <br>An indicative (but non-exhaustive) list of topics is as below: <br> <br> - Academic Databases: Structures, Coverage, Subject Classification, <br> Journal Metrics, Journal Rankings and Categorization, Databases and <br>Digital <br> Libraries, Electronic Repositories, Data infrastructure for research <br> metrics. <br> - Altmetrics: Theory and Relevance of alternative metrics, Social media <br> and alternative metrics, Scientific Vs. Public Attention, Country Specific <br> Studies, Disciplinary Differences, Platforms and aggregators. <br> - Collaboration Networks: Authorship Networks, Co-authorship and <br> Collaboration patterns, International Collaboration, Mobility and <br> Internationalization, Community Detection. <br> - Citation Studies: Citation Impact, Co-citation analysis, Citation <br> Networks, Studies on Highly Cited Papers. <br> - Indicators and Performance Metrics: Bibliometric Indicators, Impact <br> Measures, Metrics for performance assessment of Individuals and journal <br> impact, Use and Abuse of Indicators. <br> - Text-based Methods: Identifying Themes and Trends, Topic Modeling, <br> Burst Detection, Keyphrase Identification. <br> - Mapping and Visualization: Visualization Tools and Techniques, <br> Visualizing Intellectual Structures of Disciplines, Co-variates and <br> Graphical Visualizations. <br> <br>*Submission* <br> <br> - Articles can be submitted through online submission system by logging <br> in the article submission system at: http://www.journalonweb.com/jscires/ <br> . <br> - New users need to register first by signing up as an author. <br> - Please visit http://www.journalonweb.com/jscires/signup.asp. <br> - Detailed instructions for Authors can be found at: <br> https://www.jscires.org/contributors.asp. <br> - *NOTE* : Kindly select – *Special Issue - Quantitative, <br> Network-theoretic and Altmetric Analysis of Scholarly Big Data* while <br> submitting article via www.journalonweb.com/jscires <br> <br> <br>*IMPORTANT DATES:* <br> <br> - Paper Submissions By: 31st Aug. 2019 <br> - Acceptance Notification: 15th Oct. 2019 <br> - Revised Submission: 15th Nov. 2019 <br> - Final Acceptance Notification: 15th Dec. 2019 <br> - Camera Ready Submission: 30th Dec. 2019 <br> - Online Edition (expected): March 2020 <br> <br> <br>*Editors-Special Issue* <br> <br> - Vivek Singh, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India, vivek@bhu.ac.in <br> - Philipp Mayr, GESIS Leibniz Institute of Social Sciences, Cologne, <br> Germany, philipp.mayr@gesis.org <br> <br>*Associate Editors-Special Issue* <br> <br> - Aparna Basu, Formerly at CSIR-NISTADS, New Delhi, India. <br> - Sumit Banshal, South Asian University, New Delhi, India. <br> <br>*Further Details <br>* <br> <br> <br>-- <br>*Dr. Sujit Bhattacharya* <br>*Editor-in-Chief*, *Journal of Scientometric Research* <br>[ <br>Listed in *Emerging Sources Citation Index*: http://bit.ly/2yWiyvB <br>; <br>a <br>n Official Publication of Phcog.Net <br>] <br>Professor AcSIR| Academy of Scientific Research & Innovation <br>Chief Scientist (CSIR-NISTADS) <br>Dr. K.S.
